Abstract

This demonstration will illustrate the key technical and user interface aspects of the Web Adaptation Technology. Various transformations underlying the system will be shown that illustrate how this approach enables a wide range of users with reduced visual, cognitive, and motor abilities to access a large proportion of Web pages using a standard browser.
